Color poster: “Santa Fe Festival of the Arts October 7-22, 1977â€; Image consists of background of primarily beige with the upper 1/3 a bright blue, suggesting a dessert landscape; In the foreground a man stands facing forward, left arm bent across his chest and holding a blue blanket around the left side of his body; The blue blanket covers him almost entirely, with only hair, face, and left foot visible; His black hair flows out to his right; Black shadows obscure his right side, suggesting a shadow cast by the blanket blowing in wind; His shadow can be seen in the lower right corner of the image; Image is very similar to the artist’s 1973 “Santa Fe Indian†although that piece is the opposite configuration, with the shadow on the figure’s left side, and variations in color; Signed in plate, lower left; Signed and dated “10.9.77†by the artist in pen lower right. |
